These four corrections are parenthetical, intended only to inform the background of the discussion.

Correction 1: The words "undue" or "emphasis" were not mentioned in the discussion (Archive 3), so it did not center upon that.
Correction 2: the mentioned diff5596 is not representative of the dispute - it added https: to every TPB URL, and was quickly reverted by consensus AND the edit reason ("to protect users") was not a rationale used afterwards, at least never by me.
Correction 3: the dispute was ultimately over the infobox: listing both http: and https: there, as I suggested in this diff1682. I later shrank the layout suggestion to (diff5530) "URL: thepiratebay.org (SSL)".
Correction 4: the dispute was not about having the https: link in the article body. In fact, per this diff8415, discussion-engaged editors concurred and/or did not dispute that https: should stay where it is (in the article) which it remained until now, when it was deleted by the original non-discussing editor who reverted (diff7971) it twice (diff3162) from the infobox without discussion, declaring in edit summary "no consensus", even though discussion was explicitly requested. (diff3162).
